For me, the most interesting point was the short mention of open sourcing Factorio (around 2:40). Kovarex seems to be very much open to the idea, he mentions that (as an approximation) maybe two years after the DLC after things calm down …

(Hope this is not much of a titlegore)

      True. Though I don’t think we would be in a hurry for this one, both Mindustry and Shapez have similar concepts and are already open source and quite good.

      Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the source code of the Java version open for modding?

        Not really. There is de-obfusication headers which They officially provide which can make decompiled source readable for the purpose of making mods, You’re not allowed to redistribute any of the code.
